FatboyFan · Feb 8, 2016

I was cleaning a few of my Gillette Adjustables today and thought .."what the hey! a little Gillette Adjustable porn"

Sorry if the pic lacks any artistic flare

left to right :

1974 U1 Super Adjustable "Black Beauty" Short Handle
1970 P2 Super Adjustable "Black Beauty" Long Handle
1965 K2 Slim Adjustable "Delta Echo Razor Works Gun-Kote" refurbishment
1959 E1 Fatboy "Rhodium Re-plate"

No secret there what my current favourite setting is :001_smile

What do you think of the delta echo? Did you send them one of your own or just buy it from them?

I just bought from them ....the ones I have are in mechanically in good nick and the Gun Kote refurb is really nicely done and easy to keep clean. No complaints.

I feel the need to scrub with Razorock XXX for some reason.

Definitely porn. I can't describe it, but I know it when I see it.

Should certainly be able to dial in!

Feel free to paint me green with envy. Does the GunKote on the Delta Echo feel any different in hand when you shave? I love the idea but their colors are super military and I wanted to try to refurb one on my own with different colors. I just wanted to see what the feel was like.

FatboyFan · Feb 8, 2016

Feels good in the hand, it's a kind of satin-esque finish (very slight gloss) so not is slippery. I believe the stuff is quite durable as well. The way it looks to have been applied does not interfere with the detail on a razor either, I can see the model suffix info clearly etc.

It looks different but I like that it is so easy to clean.

I love an adjustable.

Stunning pile of razors. Just amazing.

Okay. I recognize most of these - but what's the one with the bulldog knurling on the middle-left?
